A Love Story As Told By The Song 'Truthfully'

I love you more than you love me

I was always the one dodging phone calls

I was never looking for a relationship. I’m perfectly fine spending time alone in my room curled up with a good book.

You knocked me out

But then I met you and the game changed. I knew you were special from the minute we made eye contact at the gym. There was something behind those big brown eyes that made me want to know everything about you.

Had me treating my Mondays like Fridays

I am more excited for Monday date night than I am for the weekend. Mondays are now my favorite day of the week because I get to spend hours with you.

Dreaming of you, always with me

I think about you all the time. I always want to be with you, near you, or touching you. I love seeing you in my dreams. It makes me so excited to wake up, so I can see you.

I love you

I’m in love. You are the love of my life. I can picture our wedding day. I can picture our little kids running around the backyard with our dog.

Getting more of your time was a challenge

But then it got hard. You have family, school, sports, work, and friends. It is so hard to talk to you on the phone for five minutes let alone spend time one-on-one together. You would rather play video games with your friends than see me.

Now I know there's no use trying

What’s the point? Why should I keep trying when you obviously don't care about me anymore?

When you say that you love me, you're lying

Why are you doing this to me? Just end it, please. Don't lie to me. I still love you.

I'm not sure why we keep fighting

What am I doing wrong? I just want to make you happy. I’m sorry for accusing you of not loving me, even when I know you don’t.

I love you more than you love me

You will always be my first love. I will always love you. Goodbye.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
